Configuration Guide Configuring Syslog
Notes
Periodical logging takes effect only when the RFC5424 format is enabled.
The settings of the periodical logging interval and the function of displaying logs on the Console and remote terminal
take effect only when the periodical logging function is enabled.
It is recommended to disable periodical display of logs on the Console and remote terminal. Otherwise, a large amount
of performance statistic logs will be displayed, increasing the burden on the device.
To ensure the server can collect all performance statistic logs at the same time point, the timer will be restarted when
you modify the periodical logging interval of a statistic object.
Configuration Steps

Unless otherwise specified, perform this configuration on the device to enable periodical logging.

Unless otherwise specified, perform this configuration on the device to configure the interval at which logs of statistic
objects are sent to the server.
